Go Green
Rockford Woman editor Jennie Pollock knows that we’re not going to transform our lifestyles overnight, but she looks for ways big and mostly small to protect our planet. Read about her experiences (she’s tried giving up plastic and meat, for example) and share your possible solutions here.

Wacky press release day

You may either find these products useful or goofy. I was interested enough to click on the links, so I’m sharing, but I’m not interested enough to get overly excited.

– I’ve written before about reusing drink pouches to make bags. But what about Kona coffee sacks? One by The Organik (aloha to the “beach lifestyle brand” that uses organic, sustainable and recyclable materials!) can be yours for 40 bucks. Buy online or go to Misun Fashion House in Chicago.

– Women have to be at least slightly intrigued by this new product called Whiz Freedom, which claims to be the world’s first eco-friendly, anti-bacterial “urine director.” I guess it allows freedom to “go anywhere,” but seems like its most practical use is for people with disabilities or fear of public restrooms. I suppose if you’re in the great outdoors or stuck at an all-day concert, it could come in handy. Cost is $25; carrying case is extra. Still not sure how it’s green (because it’s machine-washable?).
